I editted my original post, I dont agree with royalties for actors at all, but in movies and TV the system works liek that since forever the boat has sailled already. because its broken in that universe it doesnt mean ppl should break the system in games as well.

The system is in place for actors in general. The video games industry is trying to separate video game actors from the other types of actors when the work required is just as demanding and impactful as any other voice acting work. How is that fair?

Its unfair because they get hired to do a job, do the job and get payed and them they want to get payed more cause theyre gready and believe theyre super important cause theyre actors. If I build a house and its super well built and the owner of said house opens a business in the house and te business thrives and ppl always compliment him on how well built that house is I dont get a cut of his earnings for having done an awesome job building a house cause my job was build a house just that, I may get hired to build more houses cause ppl will hear of how well I build houses, wich is how it should be, but iI dont get anything extra for doing a job well, whatever comes next after the job is done is not my doing. if im a teacher and I manage to inspire a student to invent something I dont get a cut of the earnings of said student when he sells his invention even tough I was an awesome teacher. Why the hell do actors feel entlited to get a cut of a games earning them ? Theyre doing the job theyre hired to do, end of story they deserve nothing else than what they get already, wich is a very good amount of money.Good voice actors have plenty of jobs and ear a lot of money.
